MARKET ACCESS /

Medical technology companies across the world face increasingly regulated markets and obstacles for pricing and reimbursement. This means that market access strategies are becoming increasingly crucial for your commercial success.

There are ongoing changes in the reimbursement structure in various European countries as well as in the regulatory framework inside the EU. We will regularly inform you about new developments in politics and within health technology assessment bodies who adjust economic systems such as DRG/HRG.

REIMBURSEMENT /

We develop reimbursement strategies. We focus on preparing and implementing reimbursement applications in Germany and selected markets thus ensuring that the requirements and submission deadlines of healthcare authorities are met.

Obtaining reimbursement can often be a long term project and success depends on various factors, terms and regulations. Our experts will inform you about the opportunities and potential risks of this. They will also guide you through reimbursement projects taking into account local circumstances and requirements.

PUBLIC AFFAIRS /

In order to achieve a favorable reimbursement or regulatory framework, public affairs strategies should be an integral part of every market access strategy. Additionally, the reimbursement potential of direct contracts with public health funds requires high-level dialogue. We develop public affairs strategies and initiate contact with stakeholders. We also convert your message into a language that the stakeholder understands.

Our advantage in comparison to the big public affairs agencies is this: with our clear focus on medical devices and pharmaceuticals, we have a thorough understanding of the health economics and the medical background that is important for your product. This therefore increases your credibility.

Representing your company in the working groups of industry associations

PUBLIC RELATIONS /

There are various reasons to establish contact with the public. You aim to increase brand awareness. You want to inform patients on new therapies. You are seeking support for your regulatory proposals. You want to improve your reputation or prevent any future communication risks.

We are not just another PR agency. We combine our knowledge in medical and health economics issues with our professional experience in PR.

Supporting patient recruitment for clinical studies

HEALTH ECONOMICS /

The relevance of health economic models has significantly increased over the years. Medical technology companies have to present models (cost effectiveness, cost utility, cost benefit) to compare their products to standard treatments and to devices and treatment methods of competitors on the market.

Our experts are constantly recording information on health economics with the aim of creating an individual analysis for different departments (sales, marketing, regulatory etc.) with an international focus.
